I chose buying and maintaining older vehicle because at this point I’m convinced a big part of the issue is not what type of vehicle people drive but the fact that so many people can’t keep one longer than 4 years.
Friend of mine has bought 5 EV since 2015, that’s not less pollution.
Good point. Well maintained ‘02 Honda CR-V here with 186k miles. I bike to work when weather be climate conditions allow which is most days May–November wheee I live. We got a second hand Tesla last year because my wife commutes a lot for work. With the latest news, I may try and hold onto the CR-V for even longer than next 2–3 years.

We should stop building town and city’s around cars in first place
Those cars don’t just disappear into thin air when your friend finishes with them. He’s just making them more affordable and accessible to others.
